Kareem “Biggs” Burke Arrested In Marijuana Bust

According to the New York Post Roc-A-Fella Records co-founder Kareem “Biggs” Burke was arrested along with 43 other people on Federal drug charges.

The massive drug sweep included Matthew Stang, a writer and senior ad rep at High Times magazine, the bible of cannabis culture. Burke, who co-founded Roc-A-Fella with Damon Dash and Jay-Z in 1996, was nabbed early this morning by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents at his home in North Bergen, NJ.

The 18-month investigation into the vast narcotics network resulted in $1 million in seized profits and 177 pounds of marijuana.
